Liberal Response
Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, that frequently disagreed against the Georgia Republican, challenged her voting positions regarding healthcare and claimed her departure timing seemed carefully planned to coincide with congressional pension vesting. Ocasio-Cortez remarked: "Greene's actions never aligned with her talk. Despite much the rhetoric, she repeatedly voted with them seeking to gut health insurance."
Voting history show Greene supported Medicaid spending decreases and reductions to increased tax credits for Obamacare during the summer, but the lawmaker subsequently opposed ACA cuts after insurance costs surged last month.
Republican Responses
Kentucky Republican lawmaker Rep. Massie, who had earlier expressed public stands critical of the former president including about Jeffrey Epstein documents release, wrote on social media expressing he remained "very disheartened about America yet extremely pleased for my friend Greene. I shall miss having her tremendously."

"It would be not straightforward for Greene" to resume her career in government, Trump remarked, further stating: "I would welcome to see such a development." Currently, "she needs must get some rest."
